to scroll through the following menu
items:
Odometer
Press the trip/fuel button until
ODOMETER displays. This display
shows the distance the vehicle has
been driven in either miles (mi) or
kilometers (km). Pressing the trip
odometer reset stem will also
display the odometer.
To switch between English and
metric measurements, see “Units”
later in this section.
Trip Odometer
Press the trip/fuel button until
TRIP A or TRIP B displays. This
display shows the current distance
traveled in either miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) since the last reset
for the trip odometer. Pressing the
trip odometer reset stem will also
display the trip odometer. Each trip odometer can be reset to
zero separately by pressing the set/
reset button while the trip odometer
is displayed. You can also reset the
trip odometer while it is displayed by
pressing and holding the trip
odometer reset stem.
Fuel Range
Press the trip/fuel button until FUEL
RANGE displays. This display
shows the approximate number
of remaining miles (mi) or
kilometers (km) the vehicle can be
driven without refueling. The display
will show LOW if the fuel level
is low.
The fuel range estimate is based on
an average of the vehicle's fuel
economy over recent driving history
and the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank. This estimate will
change if driving conditions change.
For example, if driving in traffic and
making frequent stops, this display
may read one number, but if the
vehicle is driven on a freeway, the
number may change even thoughthe same amount of fuel is in the
fuel tank. This is because different
driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway
driving produces better fuel
economy than city driving. Fuel
range cannot be reset.
If the vehicle is low on fuel, the
FUEL LEVEL LOW message will be
displayed. See
“FUEL LEVEL LOW”
under Fuel System Messages
on
page 5‑34.
Average Fuel Economy
Press the trip/fuel button until
AVERAGE FUEL ECONOMY
displays. This display shows the
approximate average miles per
gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km) or
kilometers per liter (km/L). This
number is calculated based on the
number of mpg (L/100 km) (km/L)
recorded since the last time this
menu item was reset. To reset the
AVERAGE FUEL ECONOMY, press
and hold the set/reset button. The
display will show zero.

economy at a particular moment
and will change frequently as driving
conditions change. This display
shows the instantaneous fuel
economy in miles per gallon (mpg)

remains. The engine oil life system
will alert you to change the oil on a
schedule consistent with your
driving conditions.
